4/22/14

Good day today.  Sold off some positions as the market was charging higher almost all day and my targets got hit.  Good to see the momentum continue today.  Did take a day trade and also opened up an overnight position.  Just average close on that so probably won't shoot up like I initially hoped.  I do have a pretty tight stop on it so hopefully acts like I want.

Closed GOGO.  The momentum here was good at the start and had a nice run.  I sold close to the highs and got a good chunk of this move.  Now am glad I added to position and got a better gain dollar wise from it.

Day trade APP.  This was a pedone pick that shot up afterhours and premarket today.  Got in later than I wanted but was able to flip for a decent gain.  This was a breakout into a gap fill.  Didn't know how high it could go and it may go higher tomorrow.  But happy with my gain, especially because it dipped little after I bought.  Could have gotten in cheaper and had bigger win but can't worry about that.  Was a winning trade and thats all I care about.

Closed VRNS.  This had one heck of a breakout day and I sold for 2$ a share gain.  It continued upward after I sold, so it could have been an even bigger win, but again simply happy with the win.  Had a analyst upgrade and price target of 31.  I sold little over 30, so if they are right was good choice.

Closed OCLR.  This was a day trade that got extended out.  Was going in right direction then fell off steeply.  A big seller shot it down and hit my stop loss.  So all said and done was negligible gain after commission.  Like 5 dollars.  

opened PRMW.  Had a pop couple minutes before the close, but closed about at my purchase price.  Hoping for a morning spike and/or breakout continuation.  Stop will be close to breakeven, which is the close price today.  Continuing with small positions until I feel more confident again.  Been on a long losing streak and just dipping toe in water again.  

These closing of positions also lets me be in cash and will not be hurt much if market comes down tomorrow.  Which is very possible as it started to fade at the end of the day.  Hoping for a morning spike on one open position that I have not cut yet and it needs cutting.  Will look to sell tomorrow.  Also think those last funds settle tomorrow and puts me damn close to PDT freedom.
